I got the latest version from the following url:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/net/gaim/gaim.tar.gz?tarball=1 But when I tried to make it I got this: # make "Makefile", line 40: Malformed conditional (${HAVE_GNOME:Mlibpanel}!= "" && !exists(${GNOME_PANEL2})) "Makefile", line 46: if-less else "Makefile", line 46: Need an operator "Makefile", line 49: if-less endif "Makefile", line 49: Need an operator "Makefile", line 51: Malformed conditional (${HAVE_GNOME:Mesound}!="") "Makefile", line 58: if-less else "Makefile", line 58: Need an operator "Makefile", line 60: if-less endif "Makefile", line 60: Need an operator make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue So I edited the make file and commented out the offending commands and the stuff I didn't want here's the diff: 40,46c40,46 < .if ${HAVE_GNOME:Mlibpanel}!= "" && !exists(${GNOME_PANEL2}) < USE_GNOME+= libpanel < RUN_DEPENDS= ispell:${PORTSDIR}/textproc/ispell < CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-panel < PKGNAMESUFFIX= -gnome < PLIST_SUB+= PANEL:="" NOPANEL:="@comment " < .else --- > #.if ${HAVE_GNOME:Mlibpanel}!= "" && !exists(${GNOME_PANEL2}) > #USE_GNOME+= libpanel > #RUN_DEPENDS= ispell:${PORTSDIR}/textproc/ispell > #CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-panel > #PKGNAMESUFFIX= -gnome > #PLIST_SUB+= PANEL:="" NOPANEL:="@comment " > #.else 49c49 < .endif --- > #.endif 51,55c51,55 < .if ${HAVE_GNOME:Mesound}!="" < USE_GNOME+= esound < .if defined(PKGNAMESUFFIX) < PKGNAMESUFFIX:= ${PKGNAMESUFFIX}-esound < .else --- > #.if ${HAVE_GNOME:Mesound}!="" > #USE_GNOME+= esound > #.if defined(PKGNAMESUFFIX) > #PKGNAMESUFFIX:= ${PKGNAMESUFFIX}-esound > #.else 57,60c57,60 < .endif < .else < CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --disable-esd < .endif --- > #.endif > #.else > #CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --disable-esd > #.endif Then I did: make WITHOUT_GNOME=yes NO_CHECKSUM=yes I got errors in the following ports and downloaded the newest ports for them (all in /usr/ports/textproc): scrollkeeper expat2 docbook-xsl That's when I got in an infinite loop and no messages came up and I couldn't telnet into the machine and I got no response from the keyboard, so I rebooted. I then worked backwards from docbook-xsl and did make clean. When I got to scrollkeeper I noticed that top was showing recursive makes being generated and that's where I am now. -- ________________________ -- __ /|___ Two | | -- | | / | wrongs | Miki Janosi | -- _| |_ \ ___| won't | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- \ / \| make a | (330) 972-8640 | -- \ / ___|\ right. | | -- \/ | \ /-----------------------/ | -- |___ / \ 3 lefts will. \ _/ -- |/ `------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
